Moerch Tonearm Users... alignment question.
Hi Dhcod,When you get your MintLP, you can check how way off you are. The beauty of Mint is that arc start almost at the spindle and extend way beyond your platter. You won't need any special skill, just patience.Cheers, 
Moerch Tonearm Users... alignment question.
Moerch method ?? No, I haven't tried it, and I can't see how it can be accurate. I used the Clearaudio protractor which is not so precision. The MintLP is arc protractor where you can zero in. But you need a very good eye sight. I always have a ha... 
Moerch Tonearm Users... alignment question.
I use Feickert protractor for S2P, then MintLP. Don't think anything will be more precision than that. Getting the S2P of Moerch is very tricky.Cheers,

Dear John, You said "this force (antiskate) has to increase as the arm approaches the center." How about from the outermost of the lp toward the center? How should the antiskate work for a pivot designed tonearm ? Apologies to the original poster ...

Dear Daniel,I understand, just making a jest on the price. To deviate from an accepted norm really need a lot of courage.I'll make sure my order will be included in the 2nd batch.I know you've sold many Davinci in the past. My tonearm is 12" Grand...

TW Raven 10.5" Tonearm what cart are you using?
I understand why Dev's upset. He got Raven AC before upgrading to Black Knight. He even initiated a post on this. So after weighing his options and finally pulling the trigger, someone would suggest it's better to get two turntables, boy... Cheers,
